mammacita...wowzers!...mail order beef no different than supermarket beef,other than it takes you longer to get it... what value do they add be it kobe, black angus or rump roast...still beef, nothing of value added,maybe a better quality...there are as you know quality differences in a commodity...which causes price differentials..or else everything priced the same

tv's...you have screens ranging from 1.5 to 60 inches, color, b+w, stereo, surround sound, remote control, picture tube, projector,different sizes and configurations, so many flavors...you still watching that 9" dumont...think how ludicrous your statement is..

i guess cars are a "commodity" also..

by your "anyone can produce it" definition.. all in life that has ever has been produced is a commodity...so if westinghouse, and babcock and wilcox, and siemens produce boiling water reactors...i guess a nuclear generating plant is a commodity...silly me

as far as supply and demand...why are oil (yes a commodity mamma-san)prices on the rise...no real demand...so much for that feeble attempt on your part...

keep on repeating your definition...still ain't gonna make it for real!
